Chapter 544: Investigation by the Criminal Department

Rong Che is not a person who will comfort others, but seeing Ji Yanning so sad, he can only persuade her to let go like this.

Ji Yanning didn't speak, maybe in the eyes of others, her heart was extremely strong, but when she recalled those relatives who had treated her sincerely, she still couldn't be relieved.

She broke free from Rong Che's arms, and walked back to Concubine Su's courtyard, and after checking her pulse to make sure that the effect of the medicine had occurred, she took people out of the still water hermitage.

The moonlight was like water, Ji Yanning and Rong Che sat in the carriage and went to the town in the other direction.

Today, something like this happened in Jingshui Nunnery, and the people in Chang'an City will know about it tomorrow, if they return to the city now, it will definitely arouse suspicion, so Ji Yanning has been prepared for a long time and plans to stay in the town for a few days.

It's just that Rong Che didn't worry about her, so he came with her.

It was very quiet all the way, Ji Yanning didn't speak, and Rong Che naturally wouldn't disturb her.

He knew that what Ji Yanning needed at the moment was quiet.

Under the escort of the guards, the carriage drove exceptionally smoothly, without bumps, which was very suitable for resting, but although Ji Yanning was tired, he was not sleepy at all.

She was awake now, and her mind was full of jumbled images.

Nearly two years have passed since she was reborn, and she finally let Su Ningxue get retribution, but in addition to Su Ningxue, there is also a high emperor.

That is her true enemy, if it weren't for him, the Ying family and the Lou family would not have embarked on such a road of destruction.

He is high up, the emperor with supreme power, and she is just a merchant girl from this small place in Jiangzhou, she climbed step by step to today, and she will continue to go higher, and then tear Rong Liang from that supreme position fiercely!

As soon as he thought of Rong Liang, Ji Yanning's eyes ignited anger again.

She wanted Rong Liang to die, but just dead, and it was too cheap for him.

"If you're tired, rest for a while. Rong Che saw that her face was extremely bad, so he put his arm around her shoulders and let her lean on his body.

Feeling the warmth on Rong Che's body, the anger on Ji Yanning's body subsided a little.

She was indeed tired.

"I originally thought that as long as I tortured Su Ningxue, I could avenge them. Ji Yanning's eyes were a little wooden, and he whispered to Rong Che, "But I found that it was useless, even if I tortured her, I didn't feel half of the pleasure." ”

Rong Che hugged her tighter and said, "Because you're different from them." ”

When Ji Yanning heard Rong Che's words, he really smiled bitterly: "How could it be different? Or rather, I am even more cruel than them, and I can't wait to let them suffer the most severe torture." ”

"No, you will always be the best in my heart. Rong Che said, "They don't deserve to be compared to you." ”

Ji Yanning looked up at him, but she was half-leaning on his arms, and she could only see his chin, and she said, "I'm not that good." ”

Rong Che said: "I went to check about Ying Caiwei. ”

"I'm right in front of you, and I can tell you anything you want. Ji Yanning laughed self-deprecatingly.

Rong Che's eyes moved slightly, and he said: "There are very few things that can be found, but all of them no longer say that this girl is a proud girl of the sky, and she is different from ordinary women." ”

Ji Yanning smiled: "Yes, my grandfather said that I was destined to be extraordinary from birth, but I don't know what extraordinary I can do except be a little smarter than ordinary people and a little talented." ”

Her family loves and hates her, always loves her very much, but is very strict with her.

Rong Che said: "How fortunate I am to be able to meet you. ”

Ji Yanning said in a low voice: "It's also my luck to meet you." ”

The carriage walked slowly, Ji Yanning gradually became a little tired, his eyelids were a little heavy, leaned on Rong Che's arms, and fell asleep not long after.

Ji Yanning is a very vigilant person, even if there are guards, she still sleeps very lightly, as long as there is a small movement, she can wake her up.

But this time, she did sleep until dawn.

When the sun rises, the entire Shizusu-an begins a new day as usual.

The maid who served Concubine Su was wronged yesterday, and after returning to the room, she fell asleep groggily, and when she got up this morning, her brain was still a little dizzy.

The other two maids who lived with her also didn't seem to be awake.

"Hurry up and get ready to freshen up for the mother. One of the maids said.

"I'm in charge of serving food today, and I'm not in charge of grooming. ”

"It's really annoying, I really think I'm a favored concubine in the palace! ”

"Alas, forget it, I can't help but do it, who knows if His Royal Highness will secretly send someone to keep an eye on it, if you don't serve it well, I'm afraid that you will be punished again. ”

"Punishment is still secondary, I heard that in the palace before, Su Guifei killed a lot of palace maids. ”

"Forget it, let's go quickly, she's chattering again. ”

A few maids whispered a few words in the room, but they still had to honestly prepare for Su Guifei to freshen up.

When a maid walked to the Zen courtyard where Su Guifei lived with water, she saw that the door of the room was closed, and she thought that she didn't come yesterday and had time to clean up the debris on the ground.

She took a deep breath and stepped forward, ready to be beaten and scolded, but when she pushed open the door of the room, she was startled by the sight before her.

The basin in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang".

"Ahh

A scream pierced the entire still water hermitage.

When the other people rushed over, they saw Su Guifei half-lying on the ground, her clothes and hair were messy, and she looked at them with wide eyes, but her body couldn't move for half a minute.

Soon the nuns in the temple found the bodies of four guards near the monastery.

The wound was very neat and looked prepared.

Such a thing soon alarmed the people in Chang'an.

When the second prince rushed to the Jingshui Nunnery with the people from the Criminal Department, his face was pale.

Su Guifei didn't die, but it was almost like dead.

Because she is now a living dead, although she is alive, her hands and feet are paralyzed, and she cannot speak anything, and there is no way to ask for half a useful sentence.

As if she had experienced a lot of stimulation, when she saw the second prince, she kept screaming "ahhhh

Not only that, she is incontinent and has to be waited on by others to do anything.

Such an undignified life is almost the same as a dead man.

But compared to real dead people, she is more torturous.

The imperial doctor stepped forward to diagnose Su Guifei's pulse, but said: "The concubine has been poisoned, and there is nothing the lower officials can do." ”

To unravel such a poison, not to mention how rare and precious the medicinal materials are, the hospital may not be able to find it, and it is also necessary to know the proportion of poison configured in order to prescribe the right medicine.

If one is not careful, he may put the concubine to death, and even the main envoy of the Tai Hospital will not dare to treat it easily.

The second prince just scolded the useless things, and then went to interrogate the three maids.

The yards of the other sisters-in-law in the courtyard where Su Guifei lives on weekdays are far away, and only three maids live in a remote dilapidated house, which is considered the closest, if something happens to Su Guifei, it is impossible for them not to know.

Moreover, those people also killed his four guards, presumably their martial arts are not low, and their movements are not small.

"Who the hell did it!" The second prince's face sank into ink, and he looked at the three maids with a gaze that seemed to be about to eat people, "Let you serve your mother concubine well, this is how you slaves serve?"

"Your Highness, we really don't know!" cried a maid.

Another maid said, "We really didn't know anything last night, and we fell asleep shortly after returning to our room, and we didn't hear anything else." ”

The second prince said angrily: "What do you want! Come here, drag them all down and kill them all!"

As soon as he gave the order, a few more guards stepped forward and picked up the three little maids directly.

"Wait. A figure came out from the side and said something to stop him.

The eyes of the second prince looked over and found that it was the criminal officer of the Criminal Department who came to investigate the case today.

At this time, Ji Wenxu followed behind the Punishment Master, glanced at the second prince lightly, and lowered his head.

Ji Wenxu naturally knew who did all this, and when he saw Su Guifei's miserable appearance, he only had disdain in his heart, but his face was very calm.

The second prince's gaze looked at them: "What?"

The Punishment Master stepped forward and said respectfully to the second prince: "Your Highness, now the three of them are important witnesses in this case, and they cannot be executed until the matter is clarified." ”

When he speaks, he is neither humble nor arrogant, even if he is dealing with the second prince.

The second prince glanced at the criminal department, he also knew this person's stubborn temper, he was a person who only buried himself in the investigation of the case, and he had some real skills, but he was a little more reliable than Duan Wuflaw of Dali Temple, so he would bring someone over to investigate the case.

But now his heart was very irritable, and he said: "These maids said that they didn't know anything, and they couldn't ask anything, so it was useless to keep them. ”

The sentence said: "The details of some things to solve the case are often inadvertent, and I ask His Highness to keep the three of them first, and maybe some clues can be found." ”

"That's it, since the punishment adults all say so, then keep their cheap lives first. The second prince said impatiently, and said to the torturer, "Can you see something, what clues do you have, can you find the murderer?"
